Chapter 186 -186
Keira Olsen could sense Lewis Horton and Uncle Olsen on the right side of the hospital room. Thus, after exiting, she merely glanced briefly and headed left.
Consequently, in the corridor, Uncle Olsen also glanced briefly after the door opened, then froze his gaze on her retreating figure, squinting slightly.
Keira’s silhouette was very upright, giving off a bamboo-like air of poise.
That demeanor greatly resembled Mrs. Olsen’s.
Uncle Olsen had long heard of the illegitimate daughter who grew up beside Mrs. Olsen and bore her influence.
Isla Olsen merely bore a physical resemblance.
Yet, from merely a silhouette, Keira bore seven to eight parts resemblance to Mrs. Olsen’s demeanor.
He watched greedily for a moment longer.
He wanted to see in Keira what Mrs. Olsen looked like in her youth. Unfortunately, it had been over twenty years since he had last seen Mrs. Olsen and her image had begun to blur in his mind.
Uncle Olsen discreetly withdrew his gaze.
Keira turned left, entered the stairwell, and then answered the phone, asking, “Shirley, what is it?”
The call was from Holly Sims.
After she initially hung up but continued to call, it was clear there was an issue.
Holly said, “Connor Hill’s trial verdict has been announced. He was found guilty of premeditated murder, so he received a death sentence with reprieve. He’s likely to be transferred to prison tomorrow, and then he’ll be out of our jurisdiction. Haven’t you managed to make him reveal that secret about you yet?”
Keira lowered her eyes. “Thanks for the reminder. Could you help me delay it by two more days?”
She always had an intuition that the secret Connor was about to disclose was of paramount importance to her.
Holly immediately replied, “No problem. I’ll apply for a delay in the transfer, postponing it until the day after tomorrow. However, Keira, Isla Olsen is pregnant with Connor Hill’s baby. As long as that child is around, for the child’s future wealth and honor, he certainly won’t speak; we won’t be able to make him talk.”
“I’ll think of something else.”
Keira hung up and squinted her eyes.
Then, she opened the door gracefully and walked back.

Ellis Olsen believed Uncle Olsen would trouble her, and Lewis thought so too, which is why they both advised her not to go out. However, she wasn’t afraid at all.
The words ‘to evade’ were absent from her dictionary.
She hadn’t expected to step outside only to see Lewis Horton alone standing at the entrance of the hospital room, Uncle Olsen nowhere in sight.
Keira walked over and raised an eyebrow in inquiry, “Where is he?”
“He went to wait in the car for news,” Lewis replied.
“Just now, someone who got wind of his arrival in Oceanion tried to ingratiate himself with him. He was worried about disturbing the peace of the hospital room.”
Keira nodded, then said, “I’ll stay here and keep watch. If you have matters to attend to, feel free to go.”
Lewis took her hand. “Then I’ll work in the car downstairs. Call me if you need anything.”
“Okay.”
Keira entered the hospital room and saw Mrs. Olsen was still deep in sleep. She found a spot on the sofa and sat down.
The night deepened, and the hospital room gradually quieted down.
Keira leaned back in the chair and unknowingly dozed off.
When the morning sun streamed into the room, she abruptly awoke, checked the time—it was only six in the morning—having slept for four hours the night before.
Keira first looked at Mrs. Olsen, whose expression was still calm, her eyebrows, however, slightly furrowed as if she were dreaming.
Keira then turned her gaze towards Taylor Olsen.
She was immediately startled!
In just one night, Taylor Olsen’s hair had turned half white! His expression was haggard, his eyes sunken, clearly having not slept all night, the whites of his eyes suffused with blood.
His mouth was alarmingly pale, cracked and bleeding, his face covered with a fine stubble, making him look extremely worn.
Yet he seemed oblivious to his own state, still holding Mrs. Olsen’s hand tightly, occasionally using a cotton swab to moisten her lips with water.
Watching this, Keira felt a twitch in her heart.
She couldn’t help but pour Taylor Olsen a glass of water.
Taylor Olsen stared at the hand that suddenly appeared in front of him, slightly startled, and following that hand, he saw Keira Olsen, but this time, he did not get angry.
He silently took the cup of water, only drank a couple of sips, and then set it aside.
Noise also came from outside the door.
Isla Olsen walked in with breakfast, and upon seeing Keira Olsen and Taylor Olsen, her pupils slightly contracted. She then spoke, “Dad, you haven’t rested or eaten anything all night. I bought you breakfast, please eat something.”
Taylor Olsen waved his hand, saying, “No need.”
His words immediately surprised both Isla Olsen and Keira Olsen.
It turned out that overnight, Taylor Olsen’s voice had become extremely hoarse…
If he hadn’t just had a few sips of water, he would probably have been unable to speak at all now.
Seeing this, Keira Olsen couldn’t help but comfort him, “Don’t worry, Mrs. Olsen will be fine. When she wakes up, she surely won’t want to see you like this.”
Isla also followed suit in comforting him, “Dad, please eat something.”
Yet Taylor Olsen continued to wave his hand, “Shirley is unconscious and can’t eat anything. I will not eat until she wakes up.”
His attitude was very firm.
Since Keira Olsen had not had much contact with him and was not very attached, she didn’t say anything more.
She went outside, preparing to go downstairs to get breakfast from Lewis Horton.
Lewis Horton had just messaged her, saying that he had already bought breakfast.
But before she could go downstairs, Isla suddenly followed and asked, “Keira Olsen, aren’t you worried that Dad isn’t eating anything?”
Keira Olsen frowned and ignored her.
But Isla immediately stepped in front of her, blocking her path, “The Olsen family raised you, and this is how you treat Dad? That’s utterly heartless!”
Keira Olsen coldly looked at her, “Isla Olsen, don’t think just because Mrs. Olsen has fainted that I won’t hit you.”
Upon hearing this, Isla didn’t step back as usual, but instead suddenly moved closer to Keira Olsen, a sinister look flashing in her eyes.
…
Downstairs, two stretch cars were parked in the parking lot.
One of them had Lewis Horton inside.
He had rested briefly for a few hours last night, and now the breakfast he had bought was already arranged inside the car.
He had sent a message to Keira Olsen that if she woke up, she should come downstairs, but the girl who had just replied that she would be coming down soon hadn’t appeared yet.
This made him get out of the car.
Uncle Olsen was in the other car.
He hadn’t slept all night and had been watching the position of the third floor hospital room. He too had just gotten out of his car to stretch.
After bumping into each other in the parking lot, they exchanged glances.
Lewis Horton walked towards Uncle Olsen, seemingly wanting to greet him…
But before he could speak, a shrill scream suddenly erupted from Mrs. Olsen’s room on the third floor!!
Lewis Horton and Uncle Olsen were instantly taken aback.
Immediately, the two moved in unison, quickly heading upstairs!!
What had happened in the hospital room?
Could it be… Mrs. Olsen had woken up?!
Both of them didn’t wait for the elevator, but instead ran directly to the third floor via the staircase.
They quickly arrived at the hospital room door, then they heard a voice from inside: “Blood, so much blood…”
Lewis Horton and Uncle Olsen’s pupils contracted slightly, and without any further hesitation, they immediately pushed the door and entered!
